This level is nominally about defeating a series of targets, but with maxed out characters it's actually a semi-autoscroller due to how much dialogue there is to sit through. I dialogue skip all the longer dialogue lines during the level, and rest assured that there are a lot of them.
0:44 - first target appears on the east side. I took Wang Yuanji as my attacker since she has an amazing range and attack speed. However, she does cause one small problem: it's impossible to fight targets with her without also defeating dozens of normal troops by accident. It's inevitable that you get an additional "100 KOs" message during the level because of this, which wastes a few extra seconds.
1:00 - three additional targets spawn on the west side.
1:14 - two additional targets also spawn on the west side, although a bit more to the south.
1:36 - Masamune Date appears on the west side.
2:12 - after a bit of waiting, the gates to the outside open. Defeating two targets there will finally begin the sequence where you get to use the Yashio'ori. I doubt infinite jumping over the gates would be faster since you still have to sit through a bunch of messages first, but who knows?
2:47 - since this is Easy-difficulty and the beam charges extra quick, it's the fastest to shoot the Hydra twice with the beam: first to stun it, then a second time to finish it off. I still keep dialogue skipping because the spawning of the final target (Orochi) is dictated by the message queue.
(Or is this the fastest approach? I guess you might still be able to do it slightly faster by softening the Hydra up with regular shots, then shooting a pre-emptive Beam at the head.)
3:34 - a small little optimization to reach Orochi as fast as possible with Pang Tong.
The biggest potential time save in this level would be to find ways to reduce the number of dialogue boxes, or possibly find a way to activate the final sequence early.
(I checked out if defeating the enemies outside the gates early would change the level dialogue, but it didn't really seem to create much of a difference.)
